The immigration system in the United States is, sadly, broken. The failure of Congress to act on immigration reform has left the regulation of who can come into our country entirely out of step with the economic and social needs of our country.

Navigating the immigration system, whether to bring a talented person to the Houston area to work, to unite a family, to escape violence, or for any other reason, is a daunting challenge. However, having an experienced advocate on your side who knows how to address complicated problems can make a significant difference.

Passionate About Helping You Through the Immigration System

She decided to attend law school at the University of Texas School of Law, one of the top-ranking programs in the country, because she wanted to work in an action-oriented career that would allow her to help people. She possessed an innate skill at solving puzzles and complex problems, and knew being an attorney would allow her to exercise that skill for good.

In law school, she realized that her problem-solving skills could be put to work for people experiencing in this country what she did in China. She decided she would pursue a career in immigration law. Kathryn Karam worked with the Political Asylum Project of Austin (now known as American Gateways) and as a Student Attorney in the UT School of Law Immigration Clinic.

Let's work Together to Bring Your Family to Houston

A key purpose of immigration law in the United States is to promote family unity. Unfortunately, the law is broken, and that purpose can often be ill-served. If you are seeking to help spouses, children, parents or brothers and sisters become permanent residents, citizens or visit the United States, the process can be long and complicated.

Having an attorney as a guide can mean avoiding many complications, and having an advocate who is ready to handle them can make a tremendous difference in the outcome of your family member's immigration process, including deportation proceedings. Kathryn Karam has been working to help unite families in Texas since she was still in law school, and still helps people come to the United States or remain here.

Kathryn Karam can also assist any person with other family-based immigration matters, including assisting victims of domestic violence, crime victims seeking refuge, and juveniles seeking to immigrate to the United States.

If you are seeking to bring a talented worker into the Houston area, to unite your family, to halt a removal proceeding against yourself or a loved one, or are facing any legal matter involving the immigration system, a skilled attorney can make the difference in your success.
